"This soulful and simple painting spectacularly captures the image of Christ in the wilderness. Tempted by the devil, weary and worn, Jesus resisted and persevered. In the Wilderness presents a timeless statement that though we may be tempted and weary in this life, we have a divine model of how to persevere during times of struggle.

Is it amazing to you that the Holy Spirit led Jesus In the Wilderness to be tempted of the devil? I must confess, it is difficult for me to understand why it was necessary. It leads me to wonder what's in store for me if that's what the Son of God had to go through, all the while perfect in God's sight.

In this painting I wanted His isolation during that time to come through to the viewer. It begs the question, 'Did Jesus get weary? Was the temptation hard for Him? Could it be that He felt the pain of loneliness?'

Please take this in the right way. I sure hope He did, because if He didn't He would have no understanding of sympathy for me when I feel like it's all too much to bear. Here's where He earned the scripture that says, 'For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin' (Hebrews 4:15)."
